Kuniworth Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Funny check out the intro of US proganda during ww2, the hail of the russian wareffort would soon turn into something completly different. It's full of false facts but check out the quotes at the start... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyJohn Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 There are a lot of wartime movies that showed Stalin's regime as though it were a workers paradise. One of them has the U. S. ambassador to Russia in the 1930s telling congress about how the USSR had to secure it's northwest border against Hitler's Finnish lackies. :eek: -- Naturally there was never any mention of the Gulags, or the purges, unless, as you said, the real situation was bent beyond recognition.

jon_j_rambo Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 When the USA made this film, remember the time period. Not like we had cell phones to call & ask every detail, there was no google. Overall, the spirit of the film segment was to give some props to the Reds, within the prespective of the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
